Minneapolis event

Macbeth: the brutal truth about Scottish beer
Scottish beer, dark and mysterious, brewed in the windswept Highlands with peaty malt. Total bollocks. Everything you've ever been told about Scottish beer is total bollocks. Come and learn the far stranger truth about Scottish beer and the sometimes highly practical, sometimes quite weird, way it was brewed. Ingredients, brewing methods and Scottish styles through the ages are just some of the topics I'll discuss in my engagingly anarchic way.

To stop you feeling the evening's been a total bust as I bang on endlessly about gravities and ABVs, five historic Scottish beers will be available:

Stout - 1949 Younger DBS stout
IPA - Ushers 1885 IP
Keeping/Scotch - 1913 Younger No. 1
Export - 1865 William Younger Ext
Table - 1868 William Younger Teeble beer

Time and location:
Monday April 24th, 6:30 PM
Bent Brewstillery
c/o Kristen England
1744 Terrace Dr
Roseville,
MN 55113

Have your eyes opened. Buy me beer. Buy my book.

    Gang,

    To be perfectly transparent, here are the beers. All brewed as close to the recipes as possible. I think you'll be shocked specifically by the No1 (> 40% corn) and Teeble (< 3% abv).
